Medusa is a digital commerce platform with a built-in framework for customizations and integrations.
Medusa is a digital commerce platform with a built-in framework for customization.
Medusa's framework includes two types of tools:
Medusa ships with three main tools:
1. Modules that provide commerce functionalities, such as Product, Order, and Cart modules.
2. Customization tools to build your business features, such as custom data models, business logic, flows, and endpoints.
1. A suite of commerce modules that provide core commerce functionalities, such as tracking inventory, calculating cart totals, accepting payments, managing orders, and much more.
2. A framework to build custom functionalities specific to your business, product, or industry. This includes tools for introducing custom API endpoints, business logic, and data models; building workflows and automations; and integrating with third-party services.
3. A customizable admin dashboard for merchants to configure and operate their store.
With these tools, you save time you would spend with other platforms on maintaining and setting up your customizations. Instead, you rapidly build important features for your business.
When you start Medusa the first time you get a fully fledged commerce platform with all the features you need to get off the ground.
However, unlike other platforms, Medusa is built with customization in mind. You don't need to build hacky workarounds that are difficult to maintain and scale. Instead, you can focus on building features that brings your business's vision to life.

## Who should use Medusa
Medusa is for ambitious businesses and developers that are limited by traditional ecommerce solutions:

- You want rich commerce features that are customizable and flexible enough to support your business use case as if you built them from scratch.
- You want your custom requirements built as an integral part of the commerce applications features and architecture, rather than hacked into it.
- You want to customize your commerce flows by integrating external services without data inconsistency and irregularity.
